Abstract

Each tourism destination has unique characteristics that attract tourists' attention and interest. This research focuses on the naming of the Mbombo Aukhu tourism destination in Oladano village, Idanogawo-Nias subdistrict. The objective is to understand the local community's perspective on the naming of Mbombo Aukhu as a tourism destination. Using qualitative research methods, data were collected through observation and direct interviews with local community members. The findings reveal that the name Mbombo Aukhu originates from the naturally warm spring water in the area, which is believed to contain sulfur. The name "Mbombo Aukhu" is derived from the Nias language, where "Mbombo" translates to "gumbu idano" and "Aukhu" means "aukhu-aukhu." The local community supports this naming as it reflects the unique identity and cultural significance of the destination. The implications of this research highlight the importance of incorporating local cultural and linguistic elements in the naming and development of tourism destinations. Understanding and respecting local perspectives can enhance community support and contribute to the sustainable and socially responsible development of tourism.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of tourism promotion brochure quality on tourism promotion in North Nias Regency. A quantitative approach with a causal research design was employed using a survey method. The respondents consisted of 50 individuals who had read or been exposed to official tourism promotion brochures and were selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire measured on a five-point Likert scale and analyzed through simple linear regression. The results show that the quality of tourism promotion brochures has a positive and statistically significant effect on tourism promotion (β = 0.812; p < 0.05). The coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.681 indicates that brochure quality contributes substantially to tourism promotion, while the remaining variance is influenced by other factors beyond the scope of this study. These findings suggest that printed tourism brochures continue to play an important role in shaping tourists’ perceptions and interest. This study provides empirical support for destination marketing theory and emphasizes the importance of brochure quality in regional tourism promotion strategies.

Abstract

Writing is the process of putting thoughts into words on a piece of paper and presenting them to the reader. A spoken or written text that aims to persuade the audience or readers of something—either pro or con, depending on the situation—is an analytical exposition text. The purpose of the research was to describe the students' writing abilities and the factors that affect them in order to understand their capacity for producing analytical exposition texts. Using a Hymp-Lyons scoring rubric, which includes Thesis Statement, Arguments, and Reiterations, the students' performance on the test was evaluated.The research employed a descriptive qualitative methodology. Following Gay et al.'s recommendations for reading and taking notes, characterizing the environment, and categorizing research data, the analysis of the data was carried out in this manner. The class XI-MIPA students, which had 20 students, served as the research's informants. Data has been collected through student workbooks and interviews with English teachers and students.After conducting the analysis of students’ analytical exposition text, the result showed that 14 students (70%) were able to write an analytical exposition text, and only 6 students (30%) were not able to write an analytical exposition text. After conducting the analysis of students’ answer in interview sheets, the result showed that a lot of different factors affected the result of their writing. In the final analysis, the majority of XI-MIPA students were able to write analytical exposition texts with a solid generic structure due to a number of key factors, including their background knowledge of the subject, the depth of their understanding of analytical exposition texts, and how well they applied the writing process in their work.
